London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE
12 Walbrook 
EC4N 8AA

London Mithraeum Bloomberg SPACE showcases a series of contemporary art commissions, responding and bringing fresh perspective to the site's archaeological history. The newest installation, Performance of Entrapment by Jane and Louise Wilson, opens tomorrow, marking the 15th site specific installation in the space.

Performance of Entrapment centres around 2,000-year-old oak stakes discovered during excavations for Bloomberg’s European headquarters believed to have once supported a crossing over the River Walbrook - an ancient waterway that flowed beside the Temple of Mithras, and still runs beneath the streets of modern London. Using microscopic imagery, the Wilsons draw inspiration from the wood’s structure and DNA sequencing, to create large-scale, visually layered artworks.

Performance of Entrapment investigates parallels between the Roman Temple of Mithras and Ise Jingu shrine in Japan — two sacred places dating to the 1st–3rd century BC. Though geographically and culturally distant, they both feature similarities in iconography and house significant relics: the head of Mithras in London, and the Sacred Mirror of the Emperor at Ise Jingu. A film by the Wilsons, created with shrine authorities within the grounds of Ise Jingu, explores sisterhood, duality and renewal.

The Wilsons explain, “Ise City is the home to the Ise Ondo, a traditional female folk-dance group that dates to the Edo period. The film, made with the group, explores re-enactment of traditions… This creates a feeling of being in two worlds at once - strange, yet familiar - like looking at ourselves through a mirror.”

By weaving together film, archaeology, and contemporary art Jane and Louise Wilson offer a powerful reflection on ancient shrines, memory, and time.

You can explore Performance of Entrapment with a free audio guide from the artists on Bloomberg Connects.

Sculpture in the City is an annual sculpture park that uses the urban realm as a rotating gallery space.

The 14th Edition of Sculpture in the City will be on display from 15 July 2025 to Spring 2026, and includes the artwork, Dendrophiles, by Jane and Louise Wilson.

The ink drawing is based on images of DNA strands and a 3-D eucentric scans of wooden dendro samples which date over 2000 years, AD 60 and which likely formed part of a crossing over the River Walbrook. The microscopic imagery was developed with Phil Ayres Professor of Biohybrid Architecture at the Royal Danish Academy, Copenhagen, thanks to MOLA London.

Waterloo Underground Station 
London, UK

Go Find Miracles is a forthcoming sound artwork by 2023 Turner Prize-nominated artist Rory Pilgrim for Waterloo station commissioned by Art on the Underground.

This new work emerges from Pilgrim’s long-term work with those affected by the criminal justice system. Recorded in two underground locations, with Go Find Miracles, Pilgrim asks how we go beneath the surface to imagine new structures of repair and possibility.

The work has been developed in collaboration with HMP/YOI Portland and the Prison Choir Project, as well as the Mayor of London’s Culture and Community Spaces at Risk programme (CCSaR) and the Feminist Library in Peckham. Go Find Miracles will be heard at Waterloo Underground station along the travelator connecting the Northern and Jubilee lines, between 14-25 July 2025.

Conceived as a vast family album, Once Within a Time centers people—specifically, those who have inhabited, traversed, or left their mark upon the Santa Fe region across the centuries. Transcending a singular theme or narrative, the 12th SITE SANTA FE International manifests as a symphony of voices, engaging with the city of Santa Fe and its myriad identities and tales.

Centre Pompidou
Paris, France

From 13 June to 22 September 2025, the Centre Pompidou is giving Wolfgang Tillmans free rein to create a unique project to mark the end of the exhibition programme at the centre in Paris. He is taking over the 6,000 m2 of level 2 in the Bibliothèque Publique d’Information and transforming the space by means of a curatorial experiment.

The exhibition is composed of two distinct parts: a retrospective presentation exploring 35 years of his practice, and a curatorial experiment, in which Wolfgang Tillmans instigates a dialogue between his work and the museum’s library as both an architectural site and a locus for the dissemination of knowledge.

His iconic photography — including portraiture, still life, architecture, documentary, and abstract images — is on view within an extensive installation that also incorporates moving image, music, sound, and performance.

A catalogue, as well as an expanded version of “Tillmans’ Reader” —— a collection of writings by and interviews with the artist originally published by MoMA NY and newly translated into French — accompanies the exhibition.

Centre Pompidou, Wolfgang Tillmans: “Culture is always the first thing autocrats seek to control.”
